They understand each other so well the lines of individuality between the people of Keller begin to blur greatly, but not to the point of completely destroying the line.…

Nevertheless, people suffering from a…

Shot #1: I zoomed in on the roof of our chicken coop to illustrate horizontal lines. The chicken coop is built with all the lines listed, however, the longest of the lines, are horizontal. So, the horizontal lines made for the longest shot time. Shot #2: I focused in on the gold stitch, the other toys in the background blurred, creating the depth of field visual element. Shot #3: I zoomed in on tree bark at a local park to illustrate texture. Shot #4: I zoomed in on a building window arch to…

Both of which are imaginary lines, possibly extending beyond the edge of the picture for construction purposes. Having set up the position from which the spectator is viewing the scene, the artist may continue on the basis that parallel…

Journal Entry 1 I personally have myopia. I am negative 3.75 on each eye and wear eye contacts everyday. There are many things that are annoying about being myopic: wearing contacts, not being able to see without them, feeling blind without them, making sure you always have an extra pair of contacts on you in case you lose one. One of the more frustrating aspects of being myopic is whenever you are not wearing your contacts or glasses and you run into someone you know – and you have no idea who…
